With the colors of the city and the exuberant culture that seeps in the very architecture of the city, Macau is perfect for a luxurious romantic holiday destination to sweep your sweetheart off her feet. Of course, you’ll do the heavy lifting.
Macau is widely acknowledged as a buzzing party hub, but there are numerous romantic getaways for when you chose to pop that question.
Hence this article will help you pick the best places to propose in Macau. I hope you find the perfect fit.
Banyan Tree Macau
The Banyan Tree Macau is a luxury resort that brims of class, but also boasts of a romantic experience in an urban sanctuary. After a busy day enjoying the beautiful surroundings around the resort, you and your significant other can retreat to Banyan for an enjoyable couples massage accompanied by a luxurious scented bath.
Afterward, you can plan a secret restaurant experience for your partner, making it the perfect time and place for your proposal. This secret dinner remains confidential until the very last minute.
Your partner won’t see it coming.
When she finally says yes, you can also arrange to find your accommodation prepared according to your romantic preferences—incense here, flower petals there, and anything else you might desire. The staff there are ready to help.
If this doesn’t sound like the perfect set up for your marriage proposal in Macau, we don’t know what else is.
Vida Rica
Vida Rica is the perfect place for a romantic rendezvous. This resort is tastefully designed with a chic marble, crystal, and chrome design.
The double-height windows offer a fantastic view of Macau’s impressive evening skyline, making it arguably one of the best places to propose in Macau. Pairing this beautiful view of Macau with a sumptuous meal from the gourmet five-course set dinner will have her saying yes even before your marriage proposal.
The picture-perfect view of Vida Rica will also look great in your photo album for years to come.
So this one is definitely worth a check.
Chapel of St. Francis Xavier
This Chapel is located in Coloane Island, also known as “Macau’s Countryside”– the only place to retain an essence of the past. This little island is the perfect place for a tranquil experience away from the busy town.
Coloane is also home to a myriad of historical attractions and the most romantic one being the Chapel of St Francis Xavier. The Church is designed in Baroque style architecture, making it one of the most romantic places in Macau.
During night time, the walls on both sides leading to the Chapel are lit up with crisp sky blue colors that merge well with the original mustard and white colors of the building. This scenic view is perfect for your Macau romantic proposal.
Imagine bending the knee in the middle of the Chapel’s compound, a cool evening breeze running, and hundreds of lights illuminating the surroundings as if it they were made for that particular day, that particular night, that particular moment.
If your guess is as good as mine, you can already picture her saying yes in your mind. And the crowd goes wild.
But jokes aside, nothing screams, “Will you marry me?” like a marriage proposal done in Church. So this Chapel should feature somewhere at the top of your Macau romantic proposal places list.
Lilau Square
One place you can’t overlook when choosing the perfect place for your marriage proposal in Macau is Lilau Square. On face value, it might not look like much, but first, hear me out.
The essence of proposing is love, but have you ever thought about proposing somewhere with a history of love?
Lilau square is the perfect embodiment of this.
This place was Macau’s first Portuguese district with a fountain located on the right side where residents collected natural water. The fountain is best known by an old saying which goes like this: He who drinks water from Lilau, will never forget Lilau, either gets married in Lilau or returns to Lilau
Apart from having a rich history of love, the square is picturesque and also secretes a nostalgic vibe making it one of the best views for your romantic proposal in Macau.
Lilau Square provides a feeling of tranquility and peace that is slowly dying away in most cities. Looking at the bright side, it is a blessing to those who find it.
So, a proposal here has much more context compared to a random beach with pleasant scenery.
Dom Pedro V Theatre
Dom Pedro is arguably one of the most romantic places in the city, whether to see a show or for a marriage proposal.
Built in 1860, the Western-style theatre has since served as a performing venue for music, dance, and various other kinds of performances. With an impeccable and urbane architectural and fancy design, the theatre emanates a strong romantic flavor for couples, both new and those looking to tie the knot.
The performances here vary from the refined beauty of a Chinese orchestra to a den of celebratory world music. If you are looking for places to propose in Macau that will make your special night memorable, Dom Pedro V Theatre adds that special musical touch to your special day.
Tip: Make sure to check out the theatre’s program first, to know when they will be playing a romantic soundtrack.
